What two numbers multiply to -540 and add up to 7?




Here we answer the question: "What two numbers multiply to -540 and add up to 7?"

The answer to your question is:

-20 and 27


Below we illustrate and prove that -20 and 27 multiply to -540 and add up to 7:

-20 × 27 = -540
-20 + 27 = 7

Are you asking because you are trying to figure out how to factor the following quadratic equation?

x2 + 7x - 540 = 0

If so, the solution to factor the quadratic equation above is:

(x - 20 ) (x + 27)

To summarize, since -20 and 27 multiply to -540 and add up 7, you know that the following is true:

x2 + 7x - 540 = (x - 20 ) (x + 27)
